Here's a story that is guaranteed to get plenty of coverage.

A father of a two-year-old girl says he was "absolutely disgusted" to find his child chewing on a used condom she picked up in a McDonald's playground.

A spokeswoman for McDonald's said the company is investigating the incident at the fast-food chain's Geraldton outlet in Western Australia's mid-west.

The father was eating lunch at the restaurant on Saturday when his infant daughter came out of the playground with a used condom in her mouth.

Whilst it's possible some kids simply had a shag in the playground (practicing safe sex too I might add) it would be extremely easy for someone to embarrass a company like McDonalds in this manner. Readers may also recall the 'Ice Cream incident' at the Coogee Bay Hotel where a chocolate ice-cream contained some other brown material. Inserting something into the food at McDonalds would be a lot harder.

I think we're going to see a lot more of this type of thing by idiot protesters. There are plenty of them (click the link entitled 'capitalism' to see what upset them about Maccas).

Update: Yep. It was a prank. McDonalds are being terribly nice about it, taking no action against those responsible. And still, comments on the news page smell a conspiracy:

Is anyone else highly suspicious of this supposed development? Why would girls come forward. The cynic in me says this is something McDonalds dreamt up to deflect blame from themselves and their badly cleaned playground!

The problem with compulsory voting, is that braindead morons get to have a say in who runs this country.
